What owners wrote
Front left tire blew causing to loose control of the car it went off road and slammed into a ditch. Front bumper and quarter panel damage, front axle broke, rims dented, suspension needs to be replaced to name a few. Almost 5000.00 in damage. Person jerked forward enough to have cuts in the chest/shoulder by the seat belt yet the airbag did not deploy.
Right rear shock absorber was leaking. This causes premature tire wear (cupping) and unsafe handling conditions. Vehicle had less than 1,000 miles on it. Shock absorber was probably defective from manufacturer and ford failed to inspect or notice this defect. Ford replaced the part at my request after I noticed leaking item. Ford part # 7s4z*18125.
